Dear Iowan readers of Emily Magazine, or people in neighboring areas who might be able to make it to Iowa City by tomorrow night if they got in the car right now: I am reading in Iowa City tomorrow night, at Prairie Lights, at 7 pm! Curtis Sittenfeld will be there as well to introduce me. (!!) On our way to this reading Ruth and I have been making a scenic tour of the Midwest, which you can read about in part here. And for people who will not be able to come to the reading but would like to witness it vicariously, it will stream live on the Internet here. Please note that 7pm CST is 8pm EST, a change that results not in crippling jet lag but in a slight sense that things are off and you’d like to go to bed a little early.
I am sure your fans would rather you gave a reading inside the St. Louis City Museum, preferably in the caves.
